Cured of Rheumatism
For th*' benefit of suffering humanity
I desire to state th.it 1 suffered severely
with Muscular and Sciatic Rheumatism
for five years. During that time I tried
various so-called remedies, as well a*
the pres* rlptions of several physicians,
which afforded me very little, if any,
relief. The pain In my back, hips an4
legs was agonizing and almost unbear
able. I could hardly walk and thought
I would be obliged to abandon all bus*
lness.
A friend of mine advised me to try
LRICSOL, which I did reluctantly, and
greatly to my surprise, one battle cured
me sound and well. I cheerfully recom J
mend It to anj-one who suffers ns I did.
It is a very fine tonic also. It Increases
the appetite, aids digestion and finally
builds up the general h*-.ilth. You can
use this as you think best. Very trulXi
